Hello everyone My exams are over and Thank you for all your wishes ... my exams were great except one which was quite miserable for many and till now I was working on my assignments. To add to it I have a severe writer's block Infact even when I read anything all i relate it to is Management or Accounting etc. The other day I read somewhere 'something something ... in the heartland of India' and the first thing that came to my mind was the Parenting Fit concept of Management. Ouch. And then my pc problems. Somehow I got my pc to start and me typing out an update. But noticed that the update I had planned for is gonna be super long so broke it into parts.
So here is a complete filler update. Kind of a pacifier or sweetner for holding on till the actual update comes along. See yaha pe bhi management words use kar raha hoon ... God I think I am wasted 😆 padhai ne bigad diya mujhe 😆 Anyways try to enjoy.
Part 73
She seemed lost as if she was in a trance. The man waited for Riddhima to come to terms with her surrounding.
'Why did she even think that it could not have been him? It was always he who had come to her rescue in the dark alleys of her life. He was the one who always guided her Then why was it when she first heard those footsteps she dismissed them to be Sid's. Did she not trust him or was it her luck? It was definitely her luck cause whenever ever she needed him he was right there by her side guiding her or protecting her from the ravages of life and time. But then why did she even doubt that he would not be there when she needed him? '
She kept reasoning for her doubts but one look at him and she felt her heart mind and soul at peace suddenly. She kept looking at the dark outline of the man who stood there quietly. She could stand there all her life looking at him even though she could hardly see anything except the dark outline of his face. The thought of him being there was enough. His very thought had helped her fight it out giving her strength at every step in life. His presence was there even when he was not there. But today he was actually there. She knew that he was waiting for her to acknowledge his presence but she was even scared to blink fearing that her saviour would disappear as soon as he appeared in front of her. She did not want this moment to pass.
Time is an ever flowing river, never static. The moment had to pass. Before she could revel in that moment longer which could have lasted her a lifetime, she was rudely jolted out to return to her present where she stood in a dark staircase.
'Kaun hai waha pe?' questioned a voice who tried to sound brave to scare any unscrupulous person entering the building to find their luck on anyone's property.
Startled by the voice she started scanning the surrounding to understand from where the voice had come. She was too shocked to comprehend how to react.
Her attention was drawn back in the direction where she had seen her savior as she felt the ray of hope dim out of her life. She strained her eyes and senses to feel his presence once again. Only this time it felt like there never was anybody there. Her heart flinched at the thought that her destiny played another cruel joke on her making her believe that he had indeed come for her. If not for that voice she could have at least reveled in the feeling of his presence for some time longer. Feeling safe, secure and cared for. He was always there for her; she knew it but not today maybe. The thought killed her. She did not know him anymore. Time had seemed to have changed him or else he would have never left in the first place. But he did leave today. She felt herself being foolish to believe that she mattered to him. She chided herself as she felt she never mattered to him hence he always left her taking away the ray of hope, the spark of life away from her life or did he? '.. she debated '... Every time she had debated on this, only one answer her heart returned '.. 'NO!!!' and that moment also her heart returned the same answer firmly back with her faith in him enveloping her protectively and helping her fight all odds. After all he was always there standing in the dark alleys illuminating her life and leading her through it. Like always, the faded light seem to make it's way back into her life this time slightly closer warding away the darkness from her life. 'Riddhima '... darr ne ki koi baat nahi hai'
Her heart leapt in joy. The moment had passed yet he was still there. He was not a dream yet was her dream. After all, he was the one and only who could have this effect on her. One who could bring back the peaceful smile back on her face. He was the one who knew her like no other and whom she knew despite not knowing anything about him he was indeed her Sid!!!
